I Believe My Heart
Something inside me says that I’m not good enough
And you should go and find someone better
It would seem that I would only
Bring you down with me
However a part of me wants to stay
But how can I just do that to you?
I only want you to be happy
Because I doubt I can keep your smile
Just the fact that you’d leave me hurts
And I feel that I’d die once you do
But that I feel something new inside of me
Tell me to just follow my heart
I believe in my heart that you’re meant for me
And I will have to try to make you comfortable
I believe my soul enough to say,
“I love you too much to let you go…”
There are times when I’m unsure
And I end up crawling back into my shell
I would wonder if I even
Can get you to smile
This feels like a never ending cycle
And this one only hurts ever more
However, you deserve to be happy
And that’s all I want
If you’d be happier without me
Then I guess I’d let you go
But something inside me says that I
Just need to follow my heart
I believe my heart is right on this
I find myself changing for you
I believe my mind that if you really love me
Then I’ll stay the way that you love…
However, you deserve to be happy
And that is all I ever wanted
If you truly desire me as if
Then I’d stay this way for you!
I believe in my heart that you’re meant for me
And I will have to try to make you comfortable
I believe my soul enough to say,
“I love you too much to let you go.”
I believe my heart is right on this
I find myself changing for you
I believe my mind that if you really love me
Then I’ll stay the way that you love.
I’ll just believe in my heart!
